1st anniversary on Galts Gulch online.
Posted by Dobrien 7 years, 3 months ago to Philosophy
Today I celebrate my 1year anniversary in Galts Gulch. I am truly thankful to all the members of
this forum. This past year on this forum I have learned many things. The intelligence , the character traits , the morals, the gracious behavior is part of how I would describe you folks. I have developed some very valued friendships and am grateful. Thinking about you all I am reminded of Dagny and how she felt when she crash landed in the gulch and had dinner at Midas Mulligans home and was surrounded by the producers. I truly feel that here.
A special thanks to the creators of this forum , to Allosaur, Herb, Nickursis, OldUglyCarl, ObjectiveAnalyst, Blarman , MichaelArrethum (where ever you are), and all the rest to many to name!
I wish you all a very healthy happy prosperous New year! Thanks again.

I am pleased you have found your experience here of value! Your input has not gone unappreciated! :)
Best Wishes and Happy New year,
O.A.
You are a gentleman and a scholar.
With great respect,

I was just talking to my bride of 37 years last night at the dinner table about this. That I am compelled to research and try to understand issues. That is strange because it has happened one other time this week when our conversation was rehashed in the gulch the next day. that was about Hats of all things and we didn't know what they were called. Herb7734 then posted to me about Trump sporting a new buzz cut and wearing a Homburg hat.
One of the best things about this site is the aid it gives me in my quest for wisdom and to never let a day pass without learning something new.
A day without learning, is a day without living.
Regards,
O.A.
Snooping around the gulch . I believe you are in New Zealand. What a beautiful country and I look forward to further interaction with you. I live for the present and hope the present carries me to a long future but I don't count on it.
Have an awesome day.

I dont post often but i read the daily posting daily.
This land was something of a gulch to the first people here. Although many wrongs were done by subsequent gulchers crash landing and staying; respecting our first people starts with Te reo and tikanga - the language and culture.
And those who are not moochers are outstanding people.
A couple of weeks ago i was lucky to stay on Maori land for 3 nights. Unfelled forest, birdsong, fish from the river, sun from 5:30am to 10pm 2 hours by jetboat to get there.
Not for the fainthearted or those who insist on comforts ha ha.
Check out wairaurahiri jetboat. !
Happy 1st birthday Dob
I have read about the Rapa Nui disaster from the discoverers . Devastating health consequences to the welcoming " first people".
Also ...Aphrodite's Island the European discovery of Tahiti. The first discoverers from euro were for the most part arrogant , unethical , privileged, slobs. The Tahitians were fascinating wonderful hosts as they thought the "rudderless ships" with the bright red uniforms of the Brits were the gods returning.
If there is a good book of New Zealand's past please let me know.
Like wise.
Enjoy the holidays and happy New Years.

Our Compass Lake, FL, connection was quite a surprise.
Just checked myself out. Been in the Gulch two years and eleven months.
Don't know the exact date for my anniversary.
Oh, by the way, congratulations for yours. Cough! Cough!
I will be sending you a private message containing a story about Compass lake soon.
I wish you a very merry Christmas and a healthy happy prosperous New year! Thanks again.
No, you ain't obligated to reciprocate.
I wish you, Your wife and all your family a very healthy happy prosperous New year! Thanks again.
